‘Día de la Constitución’ or Constitution Day in Spanish on December 6 marks the anniversary of a referendum in Spain in 1978. On this day, Spain freed itself from authoritarian rule and approved a new constitution that laid out the rights of the people. This was an essential step for Spain as it freed itself from the clutches of a sole dictator and gave the nation the power to express its beliefs and live freely. Seeing the struggle of the Spanish people, it is essential to celebrate the beginning of a new democracy with a bang!
Mitten Tree Day
We celebrate Mitten Tree Day on December 6 as a fun holiday that encourages using and giving mittens. Mittens are the perfect solution to keep our hands warm when playing in the snow and building snowmen. But mittens are also the perfect gift for those who do not have a heater or fireplace to keep them warm. So, purchase (or knit) some creative and colorful mittens that you would love to sport when you step out of the house — plus a few extra for someone less fortunate than you.
National Microwave Oven Day
National Microwave Oven Day takes place every year on December 6 to celebrate one of the most influential kitchen appliances. Microwave ovens serve a variety of uses, such as making popcorn, heating leftovers, melting chocolate and butter, and even heating water. These days, you can even make microwave fudge or cake! Microwave ovens also use less energy than conventional ovens, sometimes up to 80% less. There’s no doubt that microwave ovens change our lives for the better. So, it’s no surprise that we have a day dedicated to celebrating the microwave’s usefulness.
